When My Ship Comes In

No sun on the Rockies, not even the light of day

I feel that old cabin fever comin' on

But I know where I'll be

When lady luck finally blows my way

She'll put the wind in my sails

And I'll be gone

It won't be long before my ship comes in

Gonna sail right outta Colorado

Catch a ride on a warm trade win to Puerta

No one knows

She'll find me waitin' when my ship comes in

Gonna board and go whichever way the wind blows

I'll be off to find myself once again in Puerta

No one knows

When my ship comes in

Maybe I'm only dreamin'

But it sure seems real

Somehow the wind doesn't chill quite to the bone

Or could it just be the fever

I'm runnin' on an uneven keel

Not losin' sight of why I'm up here alone

It won't be long before my ship comes in

Gonna sail right outta Colorado

Catch a ride on a warm trade win to Puerta

No one knows

She'll find me waitin' when my ship comes in

Gonna board and go whichever way the wind blows

I'll be off to find myself once again in Puerta

No one knows

When my ship comes in

Puerta, no one knows

When my ship comes in

It won't be long before my ship comes in (Before my ship comes in)

Where no one knows

She'll find me waitin' when my ship comes in

Puerta, no one knows

It won't be long before my ship comes in (Before my ship comes in)

To Puerta, no one knows

She'll find me waitin' when my ship comes in (When my ship comes in)

When my ship comes in
